Trash Removal

Residents are required to take their trash to the dumpsters outside their buildings. Housekeeping handles trash and recycling removal from lobbies, lounges, laundry rooms, and common bathrooms twice a day, ensuring clean and welcoming common areas.

HVAC System

Air Conditioned Building with Seasonal Transitioning

Allegany Hall operates on a seasonal heating and cooling schedule, with transitions typically occurring in April and October. Depending on the season, either warm or cool water circulates through the pipes to regulate room temperature. All units have an air handler to regulate and circulate air, with filters changed three times a year, and an individual wall-mounted thermostat where you can adjust the mode, fan speed, and temperature setting.
